Chapter 40 Test in Flight Class (Part 1)
At 3:30 pm, Harry and other Hufflepuff students hurried downstairs and walked down the steps to the ground in front of the gates of Hogwarts Castle to prepare for their first flight class.
The little wizards were already chattering and making a big noise. The news that Harry brought a 2,000-plus wheel to the school was spread. He became the center of the topic and became the target of onlookers.
"We swear we didn't mean to let it go."
Rov, Neville and Justin spoke with certainty. They were not big mouths that leaked the air.
"I believe you, but it doesn't matter. Sooner or later, it will be known, and it's just a little earlier or later. Even if you don't know, I will take it out in flight class today, right?"
Harry waved his hand, saying that he didn't care. He trusted a friend in a dormitory, and it was not a big deal. Although it was a little embarrassing to be surrounded by a group of people who were curious, he couldn't resist Harry's thick-skinned face. He liked to play extreme sports and was often surrounded by hundreds of people watching boxing games. He was already immune to this.
If he even felt nervous and unacceptable to such things, he would have fallen down while climbing, and many of the things he had done before would not allow any distraction.
When he arrived at the lawn for class, Harry took out the 2,000 light wheels with ease. It was not possible to ride it. Although many young wizards had previously boasted that they almost hit a helicopter while riding the rocket at home, almost hitting a Muggle airship, and even spent twelve years on it in eleven years of their lives, it would be great to listen to this kind of thing, which boy wouldn't brag?
But it feels not bad to appreciate this close-up view, even reaching out to touch it. The price of Guangwheel 2000 is a bit high for ordinary wizards. Most people can only enjoy the appetite outside the window. Like the Muggle World, the income of the wizard world also has two extremes. The wizard family (not just pure blood families) that occupy less than 10% of the population, they occupy at least 50% of the wealth of the entire magic world, and the other 30% are occupied by large unofficial institutions like Hogwarts with profound backgrounds. The remaining 90% of the population is divided by only 20%. The gap between the rich and the poor in the wizard world is also extremely huge.
Two hundred and thirty golden Jialong is equivalent to an ordinary wizard's income of four or five months without eating or drinking. The 2000 Guang Wheel is an absolute luxury in Quidditch props.
Soon, a witch with short silver-white hair and sharp yellow eyes like a falcon, and wearing a short sleeved robe walked towards them in great strides.
“It’s time for class.”
Mrs. Huo Qi spoke loudly, her voice was a little loud, and her voice was very far and clear. This was the skill she had learned when she was the referee of Quidditch. On the wide field, the referee's voice needs to be accurately conveyed.
"Okay, don't surround yourself with you all. I know that the light wheel 2000 is exciting for you, but not now."
She clapped her hands and asked the little wizards to stand in front of her. "Now, everyone is standing next to a rocket. Although it is a little old, it has a complete range of models. Whether it is a sweep, a comet, or a silver arrow that is basically invisible on the market, there are all here."
She reached out and pointed to the grass next to her. There were dozens of old rockets of different styles lying quietly on the ground. Compared to the bright and beautiful, 2,000 light wheels floating in the air, these guys lying on the ground were all shabby, and some even had a piece of tail wing, or they were loosely peeled and painted, highlighting a miserable feeling.
"Although they are old, they have the benefits of old." Mrs. Huo Qi waved her hand indifferently. "Although some of you have come into contact with this, almost none of you have correctly learned how to ride them safely. I don't want you to fly to tens and one hundred feet at once, and then be scared to fall from the sky with stiffness."
"Since several tragedies a few decades ago, Hogwarts has stopped teaching with the new Rockets. It's for your own good. It's better to fall down ten feet or twenty feet high and break your arm and leg than to lose your life."
After she said this, some fear appeared on the little wizard's face. They had never thought about falling off the broom. Many people who were afraid that their faces would suddenly turn a little white on their faces.
"I think you should understand now, right? Then hurry up and everyone is in their own position."
"Harry Potter." Mrs. Hoqi pointed Harry's name, "Professor Sprout tells me, you've already ridden it on the holidays, and it's flying pretty well?"
"Yes, professor, I think I'm flying well." Harry nodded and said truthfully.
"Is that true? Flight without anyone's teaching is very dangerous. As a real competition prop, it is not easy to control it."
Mrs. Huo Qi looked at Harry meaningfully, as if she wanted to see his guilt, but unfortunately she didn't see anything.
"I jumped over the parachute and tried it from three to seven thousand meters altitude. My best result of climbing with bare hands was to climb a cliff 116 meters high, about the height of two Hogwarts Castles. If I weren't too young, I would have learned to use paragliding, fly down from Mount Benneves, and skim over the town of Fort William to see the scenery of Scotland."
"Trust me, professor, although I haven't learned professionally how to fly on it, I can do it soon. As long as you don't hesitate to teach me, I have read all the books on Quidditch and how to fly a rocket. I like adventure, extreme sports, but I don't like reckless death."
Mrs. Huo Qi was stunned by Harry's words and smashed her mouth. Although she didn't know what Muggles' extreme sports were, some numbers were very intuitive.
"Then take your 2000 light wheel and listen carefully to my explanation. Basic knowledge is always the most important thing. Even if it is just a sitting position, it also affects whether you can steadily not fall from the sky."
She nodded slightly, and a senior student ran over at this time and stood beside her. The strange boy smiled at Harry, and then his eyes fell on the light wheel 2000.
"Now everyone stretches out your right hand and puts it above your rocket."
Mrs. Huo Qi, who officially started class, did not delay at all. She gave the direct order that practice is often the most efficient way of learning.
"Then say 'Get up!' and let your rockets know that you are going to ride it now!"
"Hurry and hurry!"
She urged to speak, capable and decisive.
